It follows a slice‑of‑life format, concentrating on the everyday worries of its characters as they deal with personal and domestic issues. In this instalment, Phil becomes convinced that misfortune is looming over him, a belief that colours his interactions throughout the day. Meanwhile, Mitch grows increasingly suspicious that Cam is subtly sabotaging his efforts while they tackle a kitchen renovation together. At the same time, Jay is determined to coax Gloria into confirming whether she was involved in a car accident, pressing her for a clear admission. Phil's certainty about impending bad luck drives his behaviour, prompting him to anticipate setbacks before they occur.
